Summary

One of the world's leading cloud customer experience and enterprise software organizations is expanding its infrastructure automation team. Their focus is evolving and modernizing a complex, large-scale AWS environment while maintaining legacy enterprise systems and driving long-term platform transformation.

They are currently seeking a DevOps / Infrastructure Automation Engineer (Python-Focused) to join their growing team. This position will be heavily hands-on, responsible for developing and maintaining a Python-based infrastructure templating engine, programmatically generating Terraform configurations, and automating AWS infrastructure across hybrid legacy and modernized environments. The ideal candidate is a strong Python engineer with deep AWS infrastructure experience - not just someone who scripts occasionally, but someone who writes and maintains substantial production code.

This role is remote within the US but EST or CST time zones are preferred.

Familiarity with Jinja templating engine for infrastructure generation
Experience using AWS Boto3 library
Experience developing or supporting Python-based Lambda functions
Strong understanding of AWS networking fundamentals (IP addressing, load balancers, VPC design, etc.)
Experience automating real-world production infrastructure environments
Ability to read, refactor, and improve code written by others

Desired Skills & Experience

Experience working in hybrid legacy / modernization environments
Experience supporting enterprise-scale AWS infrastructure
Experience with platform migrations or large-scale modernization efforts
Experience in partially automated infrastructure or data center build-outs
Strong debugging and troubleshooting capabilities
Ability to operate independently with strong ownership mindset
